Show Description

We all know the Retroville gang: Jimmy Neutron - our favorite boy genius, Carl Wheezer - the inept, allergy-plagued redhead, Sheen Estevez - the manic, action-figure-obsessed sugar addict, (ya he's crazy... but in a strangely awesome way), Cindy Vortex - the show's own girl with smarts and attitude (but do we detect a soft spot for Jimmy?), and of course, Libby Folfax - the music (not to mention a certain Sheen) lovin' girl. We also all probably know that Jimmy Neutron began his first on-screen debut in a feature film, titled Jimmy Neutron: Boy Genius.

Wow, surprising, eh? The film, released in 2001, did well in the box offices, with the tagline "Blasting Into Theaters". Written by John A. Davis and Steve Oedekerk, the movie features the Retroville gang, along with Nick, Britney, and some other sideline characters that make frequent appearances in the TV show. After every single adult in town is kidnapped by the Yolkians, a group of evil, egg-reminiscent aliens, the kids build a fleet of "intergalactic starships", and set off to rescue them. The movie is brimming with typical Jimmy Neutron humor, and a cute naivete that is lacking in some of the episodes.

Speaking of which...after the success of the movie, Jimmy Neutron blasted into Nick with the show we all are familiar with: "The Adventures of Jimmy Neutron: Boy Genius".

The show, now finished its third season, has effortlessly kept a spot in Nickelodeon's top three rated shows. In an unprecendented stroke of stupidity on Nick's part, the show was cancelled, only to be replaced by comparitively unpopular new shows such as "Mr. Meaty", "Catscratch," and "The X's", which can never match up to JN's witty, spoof-laden writing and 3-D graphics. As any dedicated fan knows, bringing Jimmy back for a fourth season or even getting the rumored Sheen-based spinoff would be like finding the cartoon version of the Holy Grail.
